Impressions of Italy - Laine Cunningham

Birthplace of the Renaissance, surrounded by four different seas, Italy is a sun-drenched Mediterranean jewel.

Home to more than fifty UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the country is the ultimate location for cultural and environmental tourism. Italy’s rich collections of art and literature span centuries.

The monuments, estimated to number over 100,000, ensure that every visit will be a whirlwind of palaces, museums, churches, art galleries, fountains, villas, and archaeological sites.

Dip into this endlessly fascinating country through an artistic perspective with full-color color photos that take you from Milan to Rome in Impressions of Italy: From Milan to Rome (a Travel Photo Art book).

In the Travel Photo Art series, traditional tourism panoramas mix with arthouse aesthetics. These slim, passport sized productions are your passport to new perspectives on famous places. Peer around corners and discover a unique way to interact with monuments and memorials you thought you knew.

This popular series includes titles that mix text with the pictures. Books like Notre Dame Cathedral: Our Lady of Paris, featuring photos taken months before the 2019 fire, become keepsakes associated with a specific site. Titles like Lidice Lives and Terezin and Theresienstadt are deeply meaningful for families touched by the Holocaust.
